c# xml-rpc

I started using a 3rd party API that depends on XML-RPC.NET using CookComputing.XmlRpc; I can download the source files but there is not an actual "XmlRpcV2.dll" file anywhere in the zip.

It looks like you are supposed to build it, but when I open the src project in MS Visual C# EXPRESS and do the conversion wizard, then try to build it I am getting 842 build errors about not being able to find types or namespaces for the following: NUnit, TestFixture, TextFixtureAttribute, Test, etc ...

Does anyone know where I can download the "XmlRpcV2.dll" file so that I can simply drop it into my C# project and start using it? I can't seem to find a direct download of the compiled dll anywhere online. Is it perhaps used in other downloadable projects somewhere?

I downloaded version 2.5.0

Any help appreciated.

This is a problem if you're using Windows Explorer to unzip the distribution file (Explorer hides the dlls). The zip file structure will be changed in version 3.0 onwards to avoid prevent this from happening.

Perhaps the best way these days to add XML-RPC.NET to a project is to use NuGet.
